As an aside, you sure you want to do this anyway?
No ;)
I'd suggest that you
just do a gpio chip driver for this, tie it in to gpiolib and use the
gpiolib user interface (which IIRC has only made it as far as -mm but is
on the way up). This gives kernel internals nice access to the pins as
well through the standard gpio framework.
This was just an example to make it others easier to reproduce my problem. My
goal is to have a soft spi driver in userspace, which would probably be
slower if it uses gpiolib. This driver is integrated in the application I
want to port to Linux.
